Oh yes, France does indeed have a tech scene. And today, TechCrunch France is hosting the first edition of #TCFRecipes in Paris, an event that will cover all the ins and outs of what’s happening in the French startup world – in English – with some of France’s hottest entrepreneurs and investors.

The event will kick off at 2pm Paris time (GMT+1) and we’re expecting a full-house of over 400 guests at the ESCP-Europe campus in Paris. For anyone who can’t make it, be sure to check out the livestream as we’ve got an incredible line-up of speakers, including :

Gilles Babinet, co-founder of Musiwave, business angel and President of the Conseil national du numérique

There’ll be speakers from Deezer, Orange, Wikio Groupe, Smartdate, Hypeed, Allmyapps and more. You can find the full line-up of speakers and topics that will be covered here. Some of our expert speakers will be discussing the situation with exits in France and in Europe, new local innovation trends with food, dating and fashion sites, how to successfully pivot a startup and whether France is a good market for copycat startups.

And of course, the final part of our event will be dedicated to 5 carefully-selected startups who will be pitching for our audience and jury for a chance to win 2 tickets to TechCrunch Disrupt and $1000 to help foot the flight and hotel costs.
